Greater Clarification Needed regarding access BLOB Analytic, Crash, Error data #734

Open tdevere opened 4 years ago

It might help to reference the fact that you don't pull Crash, Attachments, Stacks, and other data from the Azure Portal or App Center portal directly - instead, you must use the API layer - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/appcenter/gdpr/diagnostics-export#call-our-apis-for-specific-crasherror-information - And it would be helpful to remind DEVs that you can model the API request using https://openapi.appcenter.ms/

OK. I did get crash, errors, and attachments to show up in blob storage. I was mistaken initially about using the API directly to pull down data. Instead, I learned that crashes, attachments, and errors not automatically enabled in the export profile. I had to first configure the profile to export that data:

  1. Browse to https://openapi.appcenter.ms/#/export/ExportConfigurations_Create
  2. Click "try it out" and fill in these details { "type" : "blob_storage_linked_subscription", "subscription_id": "your azure subscription id", "export_entities": [ "crashes","errors", "attachments" ] }

It would be better to know these details here https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/appcenter/analytics/export.

I think it might be useful to get even more clarification.

[ "crashes","errors", "attachments" ] works, but i'm also seeing a folder called "Unhandled". Which entity type controls this folder? I'm getting all the information i need from the meta data, attachments, and crashes. I don't need this "unhandled" folder and I don't know how to turn just that folder off. It's also taking up a larger amount of the total space used by the export.

@tdevere do you have enough data on this to recommend a Pull Request for the changes?
